Her work was done...nd she was ready to go to the party....she was just going out of the door..when someone called her..
Neil- aradhya!
She turned back..
There he was in a black suit with a mirror tie..

Avni- o...
She was blushing...
Neil- ms.aradhya... I must say you blush very well...i don't want u to feel awkward so lets go...
They arrived at the party....
The party was simple yet enjoying...there was no drink there were only freshers,shakes,slushes....

She was standing at the counter and ordered a mint berry berry...
She was slurping it...while looking all over...
A guy came to her...

Neil was watching all this...she was laughing happily...
Ayan- so what about your mission?
Avni- hey! Lets go there don't talk about that here...
He grabbed his hand and took him in a corner..
Neil was fumming in anger...somewhere in his heart he was geeting jealous...

She hugged him...
She went in the hall to find him...
There he was with a girl in his embrace...
Neil- hey! U r looking more beautiful day by day...
Jazz- thank you darling...
Avni- darling!...(in mind)
Neil- don't call me that...
He saw avni staring here...
Neil- wanna dance?
Jazz- neil..tu itna romantic kb se hone lg gya...
Neil- jabse tujhe dekha...(with a wink)
They were dancing really close... With his hand on her bare waist..
He tilted his head....
She knew what was going to happen next...she closed her eyes in pain... and went to the terrace in hurry...
After 5min he followed her...
There she was looking at the view from the terrace...wipping her tears...
Neil- aradhya...
She immediately wipped her tears and turned back...
Avni- yes...
Neil- mm..u okay?
Avni- umm..yes i m okay...vo bas...u knw na hum kisiko kitna bhi hate krle lekin uska pyaar baar baar yaad ata hai..even when i hate that person...more than myself...more than...more than...anything...i just hate him...i hate him...
Sh was crying badly
He took her in his embrace
Neil- ssh!! Relax relax....
She was missing that embrace...his touch so badly...that she forgot that the person who is giving relaxation...is himself the cause of her pain...
As soon she came in her sense she pulled back...
Neil- its..ok...
Neil- aradhya...i want to tell you something...
Avni- what...
Neil- u wanted to knw na why i treat you diffrently..
Avni- yes..
Neil- see...don't feel awkward or don't think that i m a creep  but i have a soft corner for you in my heart....i feel a kind of attachement with you....which i used to feel with avni
Avni- soft corner huh...i saw what you just did downstairs...u just felt the attachement...u never meant it...mr.neil khanna...never in your dreams this is going to happen..AVNI was just a toy for you u used me and threw me...i will never forgive u neil!!never ever!!!( in mind)
